This intimate wine bar is a love letter to our theatre district and its dramatic vaudeville past. Dancers, comedians, lion tamers, drag queens, and stars like Fred Astaire, Ed Wynn, Eva Tanguay, Charlie Chaplin and Harry Houdini all performed in our beloved Winnipeg theatres before the silver screen existed. Winnipeggers were known to have the most discerning taste and if a show succeeded here, it was off to the rest of the continent. We tried to capture a tiny bit of that gilded sparkle and drama that we hope you will sense as you sip a glass of champagne among friends and neighbours in the @exchangedistrictwpg . 🥂 Photography by @nowadaystudios #wpgeats #winnipegartist #ywg #winnipegfoodie #canadasbest100 #vaudeville #winebar #winebardesign #tourismwinnipeg #bardesign #interiors123 #champagnebar ifttt December 17, 2022 View on Instagram https://instagr.am/p/CmSJpWuvD-O/
The coziest little wine bar/ coffee shop downtown. Swipe for a few pics to see how we interpreted some details of vaudeville theatres and costumes in a modern way. Also a before shot! (For reference, the before photo is looking towards the same back wall as photo 1 and 2) Great images captured by the talented @nowadaystudios 📷 ifttt December 8, 2022 View on Instagram https://instagr.am/p/Cl6H6pVgaGu/
So many craftspeople involved in this one little vignette at Rosé! Since we are the general contractor as well as the designer, we get to collaborate with a lot of talented folks and small businesses who really care about their craft. We designed custom chairs together with Dan @fineformupholstery , booths with Kayla @artupholstery silver foil with Matt @capperbrothers millwork by Jeff/Mark @kanemillwork , custom marble tables with Joseph @carraratile lighting by Kasey/Chad @makapowerwpg custom carpet installed by Adam @prairieconcepts , painting by Hay, all choreographed by Fireside’s @matthewsaloalloneword … and this is just one little nook! We ask a LOT of these fine folks and they always rise to the challenge. ifttt November 17, 2022 View on Instagram https://instagr.am/p/ClCuCxBNsyH/
We are always collecting. These 80’s post-modern table lamps were always intended for 2 very specific window sills before the windows even existed, but it was nice to have them in our studio for a time. @rosecoffeewine ifttt November 15, 2022 View on Instagram https://instagr.am/p/Ck-Dvw0MHSY/
We often hear folks asking about what happened to our umbrella room at the @nonsuchbeer tap room. This design was always meant to be a temporary installation, and was around much longer than originally intended because guests loved it so much. In it’s still-too-brief tenure, the umbrella room was a setting for wedding photo shoots, a music video, and many many selfies while sipping some excellent Belgian-style craft beer on an average night. Our design inspiration came from the beer brand itself, minimal and elegant in black and gold. The idea of “protective space” has always been central to our design philosophy, and being covered by a cloud of golden glowing umbrella lights created a magical setting…. And very flattering lighting. Each lightbulb is coated in an opaque gold top, so when inverted like this, the light only travels up rather than down. As one of our rules of artificial lighting design dictates, more points of light at lower wattages yields better results. No glare, all glow.

Presenting…Rosé — a little downtown wine bar we designed as a modern interpretation of our city’s historic vaudeville theatres. Stay tuned as we transition from active job site to cozy hang out. ifttt October 3, 2022 View on Instagram https://instagr.am/p/CjRAX04gPO7/
Can’t wait to see this antique wood screen at our vaudeville-inspired wine bar in the @exchangedistrictwpg . Strangely, it’s going in the washroom, where the design is inspired by the glamour of old theatre dressing rooms. Sourcing unique vintage pieces is a part of all our restaurant projects (and many residential ones too) and it’s super important in helping new spaces feel layered and unique. @foundoncorydon ifttt September 27, 2022 View on Instagram https://instagr.am/p/CjBIp1eAMBV/
Jpob site upgrade! While we work away behind this wall, @synonymartconsultation and @jmpilapil are transforming the outside, highlighting the typography of this old ghost sign we love so much. @walltowallwpg 2022 !!! ifttt September 21, 2022 View on Instagram https://instagr.am/p/CixOYCUgRRh/
